A good Wednesday morning to ya, Fia 🌼
It is sooo nice to begin the day with such inspiring words from a knowing poetess’ radiantly heart-gifted pen.
To receive commentary so warmly laid (as Yours) upon one of my earnest poetic efforts means more than mere thanks … you make me wish I had an endless supply of stardust to sprinkle over every grim moment of all your days and nights.And, you seem to possess a gift of grasping the true essence of my poetry; rare few do … and, it makes me feel special.
Then, I am truly humbled you think this piece is “perfect” … thank you, Fia ⁓ Rascal🖌

How warmly your gracious platitudes so deeply enthrall a hopeful bard, and what a gratifying honor to be placed on your “daily fix list”.
Thank you sincerely for your lovely morning touch! ⁓ Rascal🖌

I think this is perfectly metered. The A,B,A,B ending worked well. I love poppies.

I’m so hypnotized by your voice, Richard. I particularly love how you use enjambment so efficiently and eloquently. What a beautiful word choice… ‘beshackled mystery’. My spell check does not like that word, but I love it. I’m into iambic bondage. Hands behind my back. Wrists crossed. Let your chains caress my pulse.

Hi, Sweetness🍷
Aw, M’Dear … I am sooo sorry to have missed your gorgeous, sensually embracing sentiments, exalting tributes, and sigh-worthy vulnerabile tease … ohhh-MY!
Damned this site for not sending email notifications that I have reviews, messages, comments, etc; Fia’s working on this for me.
Been missing your masterfully intelligent, wondrously skillful self … if I knew where you are, I’d lasso you and pull me into there … hint*
Cozy thank you hugs, ‘n other dreamy stuff! ⁓ Rascally Richard ⚤

First, the way you displayed the piece is beautiful. Every stanza starts off with asking to be allowed to bring her closer to you.
This is just perfect
